Shalyn Coleman is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker in East Greenwich, Rhode Island. She specializes in perinatal mental health, anxiety disorders, OCD, attachment-related issues and trauma.
Shalyn’s approach is both compassionate and skills-based. She helps clients to learn to sit with the unknown – eventually growing to tolerate uncertainty in a manner that feels manageable and helps individuals feel more in control.
Additionally, Shalyn is trained in Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) treatment, widely considered the most effective and evidence-supported treatment for the treatment of OCD with or without medication. She is also trained in Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), the gold-standard treatment for personality disorders and a skills-based treatment aimed at improving one's own capacity for regulating emotions and tolerating distress.
Shalyn strongly believes that with acceptance, comes change – and she looks forward to helping each client enact positive change in their lives.
